  • Wargaming Week 09/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 2nd of October through to the 8th of October. BLOG STUFF Last week’s post was looking into Spectre’s unreleased stuff. It was a fun piece to write and has lead me to write a companion piece looking at rare items Spectre has released over the years. It also meant I got…

  • Spectre Miniatures Unreleased Models: October 2017

    As you may have seen based on the posts, I really like Spectre Miniatures. They make a great set of rules and make some of the coolest figures available to the modern gamer. Another thing that particularly good about them is how often they post up some previews and show the world what is coming…

  • Wargaming Week 02/10/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 25th of September through to the 1st of October. BLOG STUFF Last weeks post was on the AAR for 100 Years of War! It was a really fun time and incredible fulfilling to get the game out and for people to play. But, there are still things to work before its first…

  • Operation Dragon’s Hoard: 100 Years of War, Falkirk

    All the posts so far have been leading up to this: the first play through of the game. The original plan had been to go in at the deep end and running the first attempt at a proper show. After that fell through, running the trial at a smaller event made a little more sense.…

  • Plausible Deniability – News

    What’s this? A new post on a Tuesday evening? That’s not on the schedule! The extra post is for one reason – Plausible Deniability (The new book for Skirmish Sangin I’ve been working on for about a year) has gone to the printers. We don’t want to put an exact date on it but it’s on the final…

  • Wargaming Week 25/09/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 18th through to the 24th. BLOG STUFF This week’s post was looking at how my demo board is going! The last time I posted about it was back in May where the boards were still mostly wood and the plane was in the box. Now the boards have been played on, the…

  • Operation Dragon’s Hoard: Part 4 – Final Approach

    So there has been quite a gap since my last update (back in May) and since then a lot has changed. The game went from pie in the sky idea to actual game that is about to run in the next few days. I am both excited and terrified. THE PLAN So in the last…

  • Wargaming Week 18/09/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 11th through to the 17th. BLOG STUFF My post on REDvector’s buildings went up! I was a little ashamed of how long it took me to review these buildings seeing as I liked them a lot but it was just finding the time to write the post up. This week’s post will…

  • Impressions: REDvectors’s MDF Buildings

    You may have noticed some MDF buildings lurking in the background of many of my impressions pieces. I’ve had some comments on them and so this reminded me I really should get my impressions up before they get ruined by my slap-dash painting style. I picked up these buildings after bouncing a long chain of…

  • Wargaming Week 11/09/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 3rd through to the 11th of September BLOG STUFF Last weeks post was covering the completed SF Technicals. As I said in the post, this was really a nice self-contained project. Just a chance to focus on building some cool vehicles and a selection of gear, made easier via Spectre’s great range…

  • Non-Standard Tactical Vehicles – Building the SF Technicals

    When the full details for the SF upgrades to the technicals were announced, I could see that assembling these vehicles ready to support my operators on the field was going to be a fun project. Thanks to sheer variety of stowage and other bits to upgrade them with, building my Non-Standard Tactical Vehicles needed some…

  • Wargaming Week 04/09/2017

    Let’s start, covering the 28th of August through to the 3rd of September. BLOG STUFF Two actual posts this week – a look at Empress’s releases and a battle report from Thursday’s game. Both posts were great fun to work on – the rush to speed paint figures in time for a deadline and then the…

  • Battle Report: “The Welcome Party” – Spectre Operations

    Having been asked last week to plan a game, I sat back and had a careful think about what might be an exciting scenario to get my opponent’s figures on the table. Some sort of escort mission maybe but what to protect? As my eyes wandered across the various modern wargaming Facebook groups I settled…

  • Impressions: Empress August Releases

    Empress did a rather cool thing back in July and put out a list of things they planned to release. When I first saw it, I assumed we would see them dribbled out over a period of months. Empress instead dropped them all at once, leading to a rather exciting day watching the Empress Facebook…
